Tesla rolls out insurance in California
Tesla Inc said on Wednesday it was launching an insurance service designed to give drivers in California, its biggest market, lower rates because of safety features on its electric vehicles.
Chief Executive Elon Musk has been one of the strongest proponents of the idea that car insurance rates should plummet as driver-assist and self-driving technology become standard. Tesla said rates of its new plan were as much as 20% lower than those of rivals but did not provide comparisons. The company did not name an insurance partner, but the California Department of Insurance website showed Tesla was licensed as a broker to conduct business on behalf of the State National Insurance Company Inc, a unit of Markel Corp.

Sony in $760 million Olympus stake sale after investor Loeb's prodding
Sony Corp is selling its 5% stake in Olympus Corp back to the Japanese medical equipment maker for 80.4 billion yen ($762.88 million), a move that Daniel Loeb’s activist hedge fund Third Point LLC had called for.
This is the first strategic move Sony has made that is in line with U.S.-based Third Point’s proposals since Loeb, one of the world’s highest-profile activist investors, revealed earlier this year he was building a stake again in the company. A Sony spokeswoman said the sale was not in response to demand by specific shareholders, adding that the company is still reviewing Third Point’s proposals. Sony will sell 68.9 million Olympus shares at Thursday’s closing price of 1,165 yen by participating in Olympus’ share buyback plan.

AirAsia close to adjusting Airbus order plans
AirAsia Group will announce on Friday an adjustment to its large Airbus order plans, confirming at least part of its order for A330neos while making room for the A321XLR, two people familiar with the matter said. Airbus has been in talks for months to sell the latest addition to its narrowbody fleet, the long-range A321XLR, to its largest Asian customer in a move widely expected to lead to a restructuring of AirAsia’s order for larger A330neo jets. AirAsia’s long-haul arm AirAsia X Bhd last year placed an order for 34 A330neos but it was never finalised in the Airbus order book.

Apple to supply parts to independent repair shops for first time
Apple Inc said it will begin selling parts, tools and repair guides to independent shops to fix broken iPhones, a major change after years of lobbying against laws in some U.S. states that would have compelled it to do just that.
Apple said the program, which should help ease heavy demand on Apple and its authorized partners to fix millions of cracked screens and fried charging ports, will launch in the United States before being rolled out to other countries.

Volkswagen to invest $577 million in Brazil auto plant
Volkswagen will invest 2.4 billion reais ($577 million) in one of its Brazil factories, Sao Paulo state governor Joao Doria said on Thursday during a visit to the automaker’s headquarters in Germany. Sao Paulo state is the heart of Brazil’s auto industry, although its relevance has been in decline in recent years as other states have offered more generous tax incentives. Doria’s governorship, however, has been marked by a strong push to attract and retain manufacturing plants in Sao Paulo. Earlier this year, he introduced a tax plan for automakers granting them a 25% reduction in value added taxes as long as they invested at least 1 billion reais and created 400 new jobs.

Frank Abagnale: Never do these 2 things because 'that's 98% of me stealing your identity'
Your Facebook profile may have all the information a fraudster needs to steal your sensitive information. “If you’re on Facebook, here’s the only things you have to remember — never tell anybody where you were born or your date of birth,” Frank Abagnale told Yahoo Finance’s The Final Round. “That's 98% of me stealing your identity. I only need to know those two pieces of information.” Abagnale, a former con artist famously portrayed by Leonardo DiCaprio in the film Catch Me If You Can, is out with a new book aptly entitled “Scam Me If You Can: Simple Strategies to Outsmart Today’s Rip-off Artists.” In it, he highlights the tricks that today’s scammers and con artists are using to commit fraud.

Google and Amazon use smart speakers for 'surveillance,' top tech investor says
Tech investor John Borthwick doesn’t mince words when it comes to how he perceives smart speakers from the likes of Google and Amazon . The founder of venture capital firm Betaworks and former Time Warner and AOL executive believes the information-gathering performed by such devices is tantamount to surveillance. “I would say that there's two or three layers sort of problematic layers with these new smart speakers, smart earphones that are in market now,” Borthwick told Yahoo Finance Editor-in-Chief Andy Serwer during an interview for his series “Influencers.” “And so the first is, from a consumer standpoint, user standpoint, is that these, these devices are being used for what's — it's hard to call it anything but surveillance,” Borthwick said.

More than half of trainees hired by London’s biggest investment banks come from just eight of the UK’s top universities, according to exclusive analysis by Financial News, reigniting concerns of elitism. An investigation into the educational backgrounds of 600 trainees who have just finished internships at the City’s largest investment banks shows 53% come from a small elite band of universities that enrol a disproportionately large number of privately educated students.

SEC fines Texas-based firm for offering illegal tokens, unregistered exchange
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission said on Thursday it fined and settled charges against a Texas-based cryptocurrency firm and its founders for wrongfully issuing digital offerings and for using an unregistered online trading platform.
Bitqyck, and its founders Bruce Bise and Sam Menendez, gained $13 million from creating and selling its unregistered securities offerings to more than 13,000 investors. The SEC alleged that the defendants told investors that one of its tokens, Bitqy, would provide fractional shares of the firm’s stock through a smart contract, while its other token, BitqyM, would provide investors interest in a crypto mining facility.
The firm did not actually own such a facility. It also wrongfully allowed investors to trade its Bitqy coins using an unregistered exchange, TradeBQ. Neither Bitqyck nor its owners admitted or denied the SEC’s claims.
